Classic Case Of The Blues

Well, my truck broke down this morning on the freeway

Somewhere between here and where I'd been

And I lost my favorite lady last night in a card game

She stacked the deck so I couldn't win.

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

There's an old piano playin' on the jukebox

And a steel guitar just beggin' me to cry

And those barroom ladies smilin' by the dozen

Just so they can tear my heart out one more time.

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

Well, there's a brighter side to everything I'm saying

There's a silver lining somewhere down the line

But I sure ain't seen that brighter side lately

I'll be damned if I'll believe that lining shines.

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

And now I'm lost and lonesome

Down so low I've got-ta reach up to tie my shoes

Now I'm lost and lonesome

Livin' with a classic case of the blues.

You've got me livin' with a classic case of the blues...
